Printed Electronics Envisions a Market in the Billions
In search of perspectives for the future, the manufacture of storage instruments appears to present an increasingly interesting aspect for the printing industry’s service sector. New materials development, IT programming and the creation of new applications are closely interwoven. Reason enough for the founding of the “Organic Electronics Association (OE-E)”, which attracts representatives from across the IT spectrum to debate synergies and innovative solutions. For years, developments have been proceeding apace, as is now being confirmed by OE-A’s chairman, Wolfgang Mildner.

FuturEnergia - the Europe-wide student competition on plastics and energy efficiency
Portuguese MEP Edite Estrela brought the fourth edition of FuturEnergia - the Europe-wide student competition on plastics and energy efficiency - to a close by presenting the prizes to the winning students. The award ceremony organised by PlasticsEurope was held in the European Parliament in Brussels. When handing out the awards, MEP Estrela said: “I am very impressed with the creativity students showed when faced with these energy challenges. It is through initiatives such as FuturEnergia that fresh perspectives on these issues come to life.” The winners are teams of three students each from Denmark, Italy, Poland and Portugal. Aged between 14 and 20, in the Internet competition, they were asked to propose solutions to pressing energy and environment problems and capture their suggestions on film or in a presentation. A jury panel consisting of energy experts selected the best entries at the end of the school year.

INTERPLASTICA Moscow, 26th to 29th January 2010
After years of impressive growth rates, the Russian plastics and rubber processing industry is suffering the consequences of the global financial and economic crisis. Despite this, however, the long-term prospects are considered favourable: the need for modernisation in the country itself and in neighbouring states is still tremendous, interest in innovative technologies continues unchecked. The exhibitors at the INTERPLASTICA Moscow, the International Trade Fair for Plastics & Rubber and the region’s leading industry platform, are also looking on the positive side. Despite the difficult economic conditions, the trade fair will, from 26th to 29th January 2010, provide a representative overview. Messe Düsseldorf and its subsidiary OOO Messe Düsseldorf Moscow, the event organiser, estimate that around 500 exhibitors will be participating, occupying a total net area of around 10,000 square metres.

Report highlights the ‘Plastics Paradox’ of carbon savings through use
The plastics industry unveiled the preliminary conclusions of the most definitive study to date on the environmental impact of plastics and its applications. The study provides the clearest picture yet of the CO2 emissions of plastics and their role in fighting climate change. It challenges some of the more negative perceptions around the material’s environmental credentials. Among other conclusions, it reveals that plastics represent only 1.3% of the average European’s carbon footprint (compared with 9% clothing, 13% food, 18% recreation and leisure, for example). On balance, plastics save 5-9 times more CO2 during the use and recovery stages of their lifecycle, compared with the CO2 emitted during their production (the Carbon Balance). This ratio is set to improve to savings of 9-15 times by 2020 through advancements in production and the increasing efficiency of plastic products.
